Well, the boots that I bought off ebay turned out not to be the boots that I thought they were.  Boo hooooo!   I put them back up on ebay to try to get my money back.  Cuz unfortunately they don't even fit.

So to make myself feel better I went out and spent some money that I don't have on some new shoes!  I haven't bought myself new clothes in a while cuz I am still in my fantasy land where I am going to lose a whole bunch of weight and be able to fit into my size 3 pants again.  Eventually I'll learn to embrace my body.  ^_~   But for now!  Here are my new purchases...

These lovely things are extremely comfortable.  I think they may be a suitable replacement for the boots I had years ago that I wore literally every single day until they fell apart.  And these I will remember the brand name and style name of so if I reeeeeeaaally love 'em I can buy them again later.

And then ... for a little touch o' perty...

These shoes are awesome.  I'm not quite sure what I can wear them with yet... but I'm sure I'll think of something!  Maybe I'll take some pictures if I can get a decent outfit put together.

Once upon a time...  I bought the best boots evarrrrrr!   And I wore them every single day and I loved them and they were the sweetest things.  So comfortable.

Then.  One day.  The zipper broke.  And I took a good look at them and realized that my wonderful boots were so worn out... so tired.  They were dead.  So I threw them in a big old dumpster.

When I tried to find a replacement pair I thought "Oh NOES!"  I realized I had no idea what the hell kind of brand they were!  I knew where I bought them but that wasn't any help because the store carried all kinds of different brands.

And I was sad.   I searched and searched and searched but to no avail.

THEN!  YESTERDAY!

I FOUND THEM!

And soon they will be mine once more!   And for a quarter of the price I paid for them 5 years ago!!  HOORAY FOR EBAY!
